ORIGINAL: mstrjx I post snotty, snarky responses to posts in such a way that careful reading would see that there is usually more than one thing being said. Jeff While i relate to your post in its entirety, this aspect stood out in my mind. Careful reading is the key, and i believe (correct me if i am wrong) that you used the word "careful" to mean to read the content in an objective and unbiased mindset (if possible for the reader to do) to discern the original intent and point. i have used this at times, and have learned that many will take a subjective stance and take a point personal, with flames and attacks on character to follow instead of viewing the contents of the words for how they were originally intended. i have found that this approach also aids in finding out about the nature and character of the audience, and whether it is worth continuing the exchange of thought.. You're right, and it's probably a little unfair, at least to the person who is being 'shat' on by me and every other responder. Call it my little unfair mindfuck. The person who it's directed to probably isn't in the best frame of mind to see what all is there. My emotions don't get distorted one way or another, so I write what I do in a very level fashion. But then that goes back to my original response. If I wanted to say something directly to an OP, I can always send email, and sometimes I do. I'm aware that we all are reading each other's words, and forming opinions not only about the subject matter, but on the character of the writer as well. This is why 'reputation' is so vital in our world. If we get outed as an abuser or a rapist, the community is small enough that we are shunned from participating from anyone within that community. The same goes here. I probably take more risks than I ought, because some of the things I say might not read as well as I hear them being said. But I counter that with some more meaningful messages as well. I think it's only fair to be able to share all of myself here, not just the 'touching' bits. Thanks for giving me the chance to elaborate. And yes, I troll the Servants room and hopefully say some relevant things there as well. And the Dommes' room. Nobody has asked me to leave yet. Jeff
